National Poetry Writing Month 2019 Day #21 (pt. 1)

Here is my poem for Day 21 using the POETRYisEVERYTHING prompt: a poem describing a subject by only what the subject is not.

Not a vindicationNot an exonerationNot a justificationNot a rationalizationNot a complete set of evidenceNot containing definitive conclusionsNot coming straight out with what everyone is thinkingNot what everyone was expectingNot the way it was supposed to beNot at all satisfying

Not even remotely settling the matter
